Adult Museum Late: Burns Night

Saturday, January 25, 2025 at 7:00 pm - 10:30 pm

£15 – £25

Burns Night with a difference! Celebrating the legacy of Robert Burns, Scottish Literary Hero, this special museum late event features a packed programme.

Immerse yourself in the atmospheric Whispering Wood with the wonderful Creation Theatre and enjoy dramatic poetry readings of Burns’ poetry. Create your very own poetry-inspired zine in the Magic Common Room with Imperfect Bound.

Get your Ceilidh on in the Woodshed Theatre with the wonderful Sunbird. A ceilidh is a party with lots of dancing! Expect top tunes on fiddle, mouth organ and guitar, and perhaps a few on bagpipes too! The caller will explain all the dances, and remind you of the steps as the music plays – so this is an ideal event to come to if you’re new to ceilidh dancing. You can enjoy some of the classic Scottish dances like the Gay Gordons, Dashing White Sergeant and Strip the Willow.

Tickets include exclusive all-evening entry to the Museum’s galleries, including the magical Talking Throne!

The cafe will be serving small bites between 19:30-21:30 and the bar will be open until 22:00.

Please be aware that age ID will be required at the bar.

Ages 16+
